New Year Connections: Speed Dating 30s–40s at Still Hill Brewery at Still Hill Brewery – Rocky Hill, CT

Start the new year off with something different—real connections.
Skip the endless swiping and meet local singles face-to-face before the holidays! If you’re ready to end the year on a high note, join us for an evening of easy conversation, genuine laughs, and maybe even a spark or two. Our events make meeting new people feel natural—no pressure, just great company.

Note on Age Range: While this event is primarily focused on singles in the age range specified in the title, this is only a suggestion—not a strict requirement. If you’re slightly outside this range but feel you’d connect well with this group, you’re welcome to join! Our goal is to create well-balanced events where everyone can meet compatible matches.

How the Evening Unfolds

Casual Mixer Kickoff: Start the night with a relaxed mingle—grab a drink (not included, but encouraged) and ease into the evening before the dating rounds begin.

Guided Conversations: Not sure how to break the ice? We’ve got you covered with light conversation prompts each round, plus a friendly host to keep things moving.

Perfect-Length Connections: You’ll chat with each person for just the right amount of time to see if there’s a connection before rotating to someone new—all in a friendly, low-pressure setting.

Simple Matching System: After each round, mark “friend,” “date,” or “none.” Mutual matches get each other’s contact info the next day—simple as that!
